    I would recommend that you make an appointment with your local cab or welfare rights office usually at your local council or housing association

    Welcome to the community @alison70

    The CAB have a brilliant guide to filling in your PIP forms, they got through question by question.  It can be a bit overwhelming, so if you have anyone to help you, that be really helpful.
